totally whiffed on crypto.
at least 130 countries are working on developing national cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin goes from $15 to $62,000 in ten years
crypto market cap goes from $11 billion to two trillion dollars in ten years.
The only people calling crypto a failure are ig'nant or covered in salt.
CBDCs aren't cryptocurrencies.
As for the rest, "It's good because it's making lots of money" isn't as persuasive an argument as you think it is.
"CBDCs aren't cryptocurrencies"
Love to hear how you think cryptographic digital currencies aren't cryptographic digital currencies.
"As for the rest, "It's good because it's making lots of money""
cryptocurrencies are exceptionally popular tech with very active communities developing new technology that is constantly gaining popularity and value.
by your flawed metrics, solar power is "hype".
Neither of the C's stand for cryptography and they don't even require a blockchain, but can use one.
glad somebody's reading.
keep on.
